Charlie's Angel's meets the DC Universe! What could go wrong? Turns out a lot! Taking place in New Gotham City, years after its savior Batman has seemingly flown the coup, the series centered on Oracle, Huntress and Dinah Lance as they form the vigilante group "Birds of Prey." Here's the problem, the show had selective memory when determining which aspects of the comics to include...something comic fans hate. While Oracle's backstory as James Gordon's wheelchair bound daughter was kept mostly accurate, producers made Dinah the daughter of Black Canary instead of the super-heroine herself and more blasphemous to fans they made Huntress the illegitimate daughter of Batman and Catwoman (who incidentally in this project was killed by a assassin hired by the Joker). Are you beginning to see why this series had issues?
